Gostaríamos de deixar o nosso agradecimento e partilhar a nossa experiência sobre o espaço onde realizámos a nossa cerimónia. O espaço é realmente muito giro e surpreendente. Do lado de fora, pode não chamar muito a atenção e o acesso pode parecer um pouco discreto, mas ao chegar somos completamente surpreendidos por um ambiente muito acolhedor, bonito e cheio de charme. Foi exatamente o que idealizámos para este momento tão especial. O proprietário Sr António sempre foi extremamente atencioso connosco durante todo o processo de preparação. No dia do evento, passou a responsabilidade para a sua equipa, que foi simplesmente impecável — profissionais, simpáticos, organizados e sempre disponíveis. Sentimo-nos acompanhados e tranquilos em todos os momentos. Em relação à refeição, estava tudo impecável. O buffet muito bem apresentado e organizado, a sopa deliciosa, e os dois pratos principais muito bem confeccionados. A única pequena observação seria que o bacalhau estava um pouco mais salgado do que o esperado, mas nada que tenha comprometido a experiência. As sobremesas estavam maravilhosas, com uma grande variedade e muito bem preparadas — foi mesmo muito agradável. A única situação menos positiva foi em relação ao DJ, pois algumas músicas que enviámos previamente não foram tocadas, e eram escolhas importantes para nós. Ainda assim, no geral, a experiência foi muito positiva. Foi um dia muito especial e recomendamos o espaço a quem procura um ambiente acolhedor, boa gastronomia e uma equipa dedicada.
